* Added training video section.

1/11/16 [2.0.8]

* Changed cursors from gif to png format ( with transparency ).
* RSS Feeds button in one style with other on top buttons.

1/11/16 [2.0.7]

* Bug Fix: Docking problem with Post editor fixed.
* Bug fix: Added popup windows manager to avoid problems with blurred screen.
* Added inbuilt browser. You can open links in it and also just to browse.

* New Feature: Support for old-school Atom Feeds. This addition allows you to use your Google Alerts in the RSS feed section of CurationSoft
* Drag & Drop Confusion: We’ve noticed that more and more support tickets are coming in with drag and drop issues. It’s not that the feature is broken but it needs to work better. As a response, we made sure the only draggable area is where the drag icon is available. Before you could drag the entire item but it wouldn’t drop. It was confusing. We believe this small change will cut down on confusion and hopefully provide you a better experience.

12/16/11 [1.1.3]

* New Feature: Now you can import your OPML file from Google Reader. Just export from Google Reader and then you can import the same file into CurationSoft.

12/8/11 [1.1.2]

* YouTube style update. The YouTube now reflect the dragging capability of the rest of the software. It was causing some confusion as it should have.
* With the expanded search box introduced in 1.1.0 the dock window size was incorrect. We wanted to keep it streamlined so we just removed the logo when you dock the application. It’s helpful and the window is now 200 pixels smaller when you dock.
* Bug Fix: Simple thing here. Sometimes dragging while CurationSoft wasn’t in focus caused an issue where the code wouldn’t be copied. That’s fixed now we think.

12/8/11 [1.1.1]

* Bug Fix: Twitter paging menu not being removed

* Bug Fix: If you had autocomplete history and used the editor to take it down to zero then the program would crash. We didn’t account for that when we rolled out the Autocomplete Editor. Unfortunately, if you’ve used the Autocomplete History editor, then you will probably need to delete your history under Settings | Options. If you’re seeing no results, when you do a search this is the issue. Hat tip to Gail for finding the bug.

11/29/11 [1.1.0]

* New Feature: View & Edit your autocomplete history. After a bunch of searches your autocomplete box can get out of control. We wanted to give you a way to control this and delete entries if necessary. You’ll find a new menu item under the Settings menu named: Autocomplete.

* Due to some complaints about the width of the search box, we’ve expanded it about 50 pixels which should provide more viewable characters. Now those long, pesky searches will be viewable.

11/15/11 [1.0.9]

* Two new sources! We found that many people were unhappy with Google Blogs & Google News so we added Blekko Blog & Blekko news search. If you’re not familiar with Blekko it’s an incredibly powerful search engine. Their results are extremely high-quality and we’re excited to have them as a content partner. When you start using Blekko for curation you’ll soon realize that it’s an excellent search engine.

* Fixed a bug where the page navigation bar was still appearing when getting RSS feed results. That shouldn’t happen because RSS Feeds only return 10 results usually.

* Couple of small UI tweaks. Made the fact you have to double-click the RSS feed for results to return much more noticeable.

11/2/11 [1.0.8]

* Found a bug in YouTube results. Hat tip to Arnold

10/21/11 [1.0.7]

* The big news is added support for RSS Feeds. You can add your own feeds and pull data from them as needed. This feature is in BETA and will be improved greatly in upcoming versions. It’s a bit rough around the edges and we’ll continue improving as we go forward in future versions.

* Improved UI for every content source. It’s now much more intuitive and easier on the eyes. We took a hard look at the layout for each source and changed all of them except YouTube. YouTube will probably get refreshed in the next update.

* Favicons for each post. We’re using a cool service to bring Favicons into every result which really jazzes up the visuals when you drop your posts. It also helps a lot with presenting information to you (in the software) and your readers (on your site).

* Google News completely revamped. To be honest, the first release of Google News wasn’t up to par with our standards and that’s been corrected. It’s a very similar setup to Google Blogs now and we think you’ll be happy with the end result.

* Twitter results completely revamped. We changed the layout, add most popular tweets (with Retweet numbers) at the top, added links for hashtags and mentions and it feels a lot more like a real Twitter search client.

* Flickr results completely revamped. It’s now a fancy tile layout and the images load once and there is no more flickering when you scroll. It’s a major upgrade to the Flickr results but there’s a lot more to do that we’ll work on in upcoming releases. Still a bit rough around the edges.

* Image caching. We’ve implemented image caching across a large portion of the app. This prevents images from constantly reloading when you change the window, scroll, etc.. It’s a major performance improvement. Expect more performance improvements in upcoming releases.

* We threw out all the previous code and implementations of Drag & Drop and completely redid it. They have been rethought from the ground up and you’ll find your experience is much cleaner, easier and less frustrating. No more erroneous HTML, link colors, etc.. To quote the late Steve Jobs, “It just works”.

* Lots of code base cleanup. You won’t see it, but we promise you’ll benefit from it through performance improvements – We will be doing a bunch more of this in upcoming versions that you’ll benefit from but may not “see”.

* We changed the autocomplete system. Not by a lot but it was setup in a way that adding an extra query wasn’t possible. You’ll find the autocomplete works better and is less frustrating. Any feedback on the autocomplete is much appreciated from users.

* Image Align – We added another option to the “Frequent” menu. When dragging images you can now specify if you want the image left aligned or right aligned or neither. This comes in handy when designing your posts and this way you don’t just have an image sitting in the middle of your post.

* Bug Fix: Found an issue where the scrollbar may disappear or extend beyond from the field of view when requesting new results.

* Bug Fix / Change: Found an issue where only one page of Twitter results could be returned. Requesting a second page threw an error. Upon thinking about it more it only makes sense to return one page. You can still set the number of results you want but the goal of our software is curation (i.e. finding the best results) and not digging through pages of largely irrelevant Twitter results. Having the top tweets returned made this a no-brainer for us.

9/21/11 [1.0.6]

* Fixed an issue where some paying members were seeing ads in the software. So sorry for this error.

9/20/11 [1.0.5]

* Free version rollout – We disabled the trial version because we found it more effective to just have a limited free version instead of time-restrained trial. Our apologies to any users this effects.

* Free version includes ads from our partner BuySellAds.com and is limited to one content source.

* Auto login to CurationSoft.com now available from the software. Clicking Upgrade/Renew in the help menu will take you to your account instead of manually having to login.

9/6/11 [1.0.4]

* Found a major error with respect to autocomplete and new users. Broke the entire app. Our apologies for the problems and frustration this caused for new users. Thankfully, we caught it and acted quickly.

9/5/11 [1.0.3]

* Added Google News As Source
- Exciting! Now drag and drop news that is happening right now.

* Related Keywords (a.k.a Recommend Post Tags)
- We’re very excited about this feature! Now, when you do a search you’ll be sent a list of “Related Keywords” for your post. These are based on actual related searches performed in the search engines so there’s traffic for these terms. No more trying to decide on good keywords for your tags when you post. CurationSoft does it for you!

* The Progress Monitor
- We added a social element to CurationSoft so you can share your progress with the world. Now, you’ll see how many posts you’ve made with CurationSoft and have the opportunity to share on Facebook and Twitter. Help us out and tell your friends how much you love CurationSoft

* The Frequent Menu
- The requests we get most often: Can I keep the window on top? How do I make links open in a new window? With that in mind, we added those options to a new menu, plus drag option for related keywords. We put them in a ‘frequent menu’ because it’s the kind of thing you’ll change on the fly and often. We think it’s a good approach and will save you time and that’s what CurationSoft is all about. NOTE: These are session based variables which means they always default to false and must be set each time the application is run.

* Keyboard Shortcuts
- Now you can scroll through results with up and down arrow keys. Try it out: do a search and then immediately use the down arrow to scroll through results. We think you’ll like this improvement!

* Removed System Tray Functionality
- We found this small feature was confusing users and really served no purpose at this point so we removed it.

* Autocomplete Bug Fixes
- Improved the user experience for the autocomplete box. We have a brand new engine for autocompletion and it’s much faster and efficient. The good news is that all of your old data is saved so it’s a seamless upgrade.

* Old Fashioned Copy And Paste
- This is one of those, “it should just probably be there” features. When you right click on an item in the search results you will see a ‘Copy HTML’ menu item and that puts the same data on your clipboard that you usually drag and drop into an editor. Hey, it’s the small things that count right?

* Improved Docking UX
- Fixed a pesky issue where the docking button disappeared when you docked the screen. Should have caught this a long time ago. Sorry about that.

* Menu Styling
- We had a couple of styling issues that needed fixing. Nothing too important here.

8/17/11 [1.0.2]
* Bug fixes
* Trial support

8/7/11 [1.0.1]
* Changed registration check

7/28/11 [1.0.0]

What Our Users Say

I just started using Curationsoft in order to start curating technology news for my website. Within days, I stopped using the other curation software I had previously purchased and switched entirely to Curationsoft. The interface is so intuitive that I still have not watched all of the training videos - but I learn completely new techniques each time I do watch a new one. The ability to easily use this in conjunction with Facebook is amazing and will be a great way to drive traffic to my site. In addition to curation for my blog, I have also been using it for research. If you open a Google Drive document and drag research content found with CurationSoft over into the document, you not only have a great all-in-one-place resource - but your bibliography is nearly built if you need to provide sources. I am using it for researching compliance in the mortgage finance field and it has already been an amazing time saver. Finally, I am completely blown away by your amazing customer support. I opened one support ticket to take care of a password issue (my fault) that was responded to almost immediately. The second ticket was opened to point out a minor bug which - was fixed within a day or two. Thanks for creating this fine software and providing such great support. I happily give CurationSoft five stars!

I have used the software in numerous sites to enable me to select and add a range of curated content and I find it easy and simple to use, while at the same time powerful to attract truly dynamic content. I use the software to find interesting and useful content for some of my sites and I still wish to learn more about using the software to the max. Content curation is core to the future development of sites as we all need good quality and reliable content to add to sites on a daily basis.
Paul S.

CurationSoft benefits our business by the relative ease it provides in obtaining great content at ease along with the ability to drag and drop the information to posts. It has a nice interface and it is definitely a time saver. I have ranked pages on the first page of Google with the curated content that was added to posts using your software. I earn $1ooo a month from 1 of my clients using your software on average, so the software has definitely made a positive contribution financially. I use the software to primarily add current up to date relevant content for my clients websites. Content curation basically is weaving together great content from different sources around the web to have a great page of great content for the end user. It brings steady traffic due to the search engines indexing great content. It is awesome.

I use CurationSoft to help grab content for Tier 2 and Tier 3 sites for ranking purposes. It allows me to create decent looking sites with good content for SEO reasons when working to rank a certain site. Content is king, and great content is always best! I basically repurpose expired domains and use the software to do it quickly and natural looking. I get paid for my SEO services for clients and use the software a lot: I use it to get content quickly to build out sites that link to my client or 'money' sites that need to look good and hold up to human evaluation. Content curation gives me the ability to use relevant topics, content, videos for a specific niche and find quality content and quality authority links quickly to build out a site.

CurationSoft helps in finding fresh content to fill our blog with news and updates. The more news and updates you add to your site, the better in terms of quality and search engine love.We have had increased traffic to our news site and hold top 10 rankings for niche related news.This news site has helped indirectly by referring clients to us in related industries. It has also helped to establish us as an authority in the industry. We use it to stay in tune with news and blog posts related to martial arts movies, sports, etc. Content curation, once you get used to it provides fresh insight and helps to quickly overcome writers block.

CurationSoft helped me overall to improve my "image" with clients since I'm no longer "just" the SEO-guy, since I made it part of my "package", and really only use it as a competitive advantage.I use it a lot for my offline clients to get them an idea of what blogs to put out, where to find them and what to put how and where. I often show it off in a meeting, where we go online and look up articles/info pertaining to their business. We then compare it with stuff they have on their website.It's VERY valuable to have ONE piece of software to get the info my clients need to become better bloggers.

CurationSoft makes content creation faster, and allows me to curate content and know I put together a quality post. Not some garbage spin or autopost. The software helps me find content and it does an excellent job doin it. I use it to add content to my personal blog and other websites I run. So the bottom line is, the software gets me content fast, and saves me hours of time that I used to spend (and dread spending) to create something useful.

CurationSoft helps expediting research in locating relevant content. Access to Twitter, YouTube, Google News & Flickr makes for varied and vast resources. Further emotional comfort by realizing that the content found is copyright safe. The ability to search by keyword then drag and drop, edit and post is fast and easy. Pingback creation saves time by not having to grovel, or worse, pay, for backlinks. Insertion of digitally rich media improves visitor experience. I have not tracked search engine rankings, but generally have more visits. It is so easy that I use the software when I am on my treadmill desk, so I can get a workout while easily adding pages of content.

We manage over 80 websites and CurationSoft allows us to post interesting and unique content quickly and easily on a regular basis from one place. Before we had CurationSoft it was a time consuming process to find and edit content and the login to each site and make a post. Now it's really very easy. The curated posts we make to each site add weight both in terms of number of posts and credibility in terms of people having confidence we know what we're are talking about. I have no hard evidence but I'm sure it helps convert to a sale of our products as customers often reference posts in their communications with us.I have an assistant use the software to post interesting news items to 2 to 3 of our 80+ sites on a daily basis. It's quick and easy to do and does not take her more than 5 mins per post. Before it would have taken her 30 mins per post, maybe longer.It enables us to keep our customers and prospects in touch with our industry niche and provide a service which both find valuable. Because of the speed we are able to post valuable content on a lot of sites, quickly and regularly for low cost.

CS enables me to share crucial info with members of my congregation who do not have the time to do the kind of research I do.
